Much has been said respeaiug Lord.GREIVILLE'S refusal to be considered as an accession to the_ present Ministers; but it seems ridiculous to urge this point; as it does' not appear that his Lordship Wacwilling to co-operate even in the formation of a new Mi . nistry. Hence it may be inferred that nothing would •• satisfy the Noble Lord but the entire overthrow , of the present Ministers, and the complete restoration of himself and his friends to power. Yet, if that be the case, it is difficult to account for his Lord ship's rapid journey to Lon don, for surel y he . could not expe6t that the present Ministers were to treat with his Lordship for their own removal, and to give him their assistance in arranging matters for the entrance of their successors.

Just before this Paper was put to press we re ccived the Monitors to the 30th ult. and Dutch Pa- i pers to the sth inst. Their contents ,are very un important. The Moniteur of the 30th CoMains long observations, in the shape of notes, on. tliO articles' in the English Pipers respeding the return of the E-Apeltion from the Scheldt. The Emperor of Austria and BUONAPARTZ are ;aid to carry on a direct correspondence with each other.

Why, then should he be , averse even to . become an accession to the present Ministry, when, from all accounts, it is probable that be and Lord GREY might have had the very posts which they would'have expected if the whole of their party were reinstated. In fa&, the conduit of Mr. PERCEVAL seems to have been marked by uncommon liberality and disinterestedness, and the nation cannot but be struck with the conduct of him • and his friends, in comparison with that of Lord GRENVILLE and his Party, and will be little disposed to apply the words " inordinate ambition" to the fortner.. It is evident that there was a fair oppor tunity for an extended and ,a combined Administra tion, provided by the present Ministry, and that whatever advantsges the country _might have. derived.. from such an arrangement, it has lost through the overweening eagerness of those who refused to come into power except with the whole of their party. AVE this morning received German Papers to the sloth u!t. The following are the most important ar- ticks they contain : B...:.'acs OF THE ELBE, SEPT. 29.—Notwithgtand ing the pAcific tone assumed in all the public advices from Vienna and other parts of Austria, under the French yoke, there are private advices which repre seat the renewal of hostilities as absolutely certain. The natives of Hungary now under arms are_ esti mated at a far greater force than 150,000 men. All the Westphalian troops that were in garrison v„t Hamburg!' have returned home since the 23d instant, after obtaining the sum of 300,000 marks : a demand of money has also been made from Lu bec, but only 50 louis d'ors were received.

Our Minister, On his arrival here, received a communication from the Minister of Foreign Re lations, saying, that when England raises her block ade from the ports of France and her Dependencies, his MAJESTY will do the same with. regard to Eng land and her Colonies., When England shall re scind her Orders in Council of the t ith NoVember, 1807, / the Milan Decree falls of course; and Ame rican vessels will then be received, and find pro teCtion in the ports of France. I have myself read the .communicatiop froth CHAMPAGNY' to General ARMSTRONG.". A Dutch Paper, of the 7th inst. has been received in town ; it states, that the Emperor of Austria is so ill, that his life is despaired of. The same Pa per, we understpd, contains a paragraph; stating, that the Etniii:ror of Russia .had declared his inten-, tion of joining Austria, in the event of the renewal of hostilities. , L is s atel in letters from Hatnburgh, that Boo sArAture has insisted, in his ,Ncgociation with Auori3, as on.~ of the first articles in the treaty of Peace, that a French Army should remain in the 44:0•3trian dominions, until the conclusion of a Peace 'between Englind and France. :It was impossible that the Emperor of Austria could assent to . such a stiimlatipn, without virtually 'consenting to resign bis crown. The most clisastronsjssne of the war would not put him a in worse situation than he would be - 7piaced in by such a peace. He has therefore po sit'A•ely refused to accede to such terms, and therei.s now little doubt but that hostilities will soon recom- 1 rnence. A letter has been receive d fro m Pr? g ne,'of a ! t later date than any of the Foreign Papers, which 1 • states that the renewal of hostilities is inevitable.--- The _Qoverntvent pf this country has been accusecV,' \ by the Onositicn Writers, of 'stimulating . Austria I in re new the war; this charge,llike pally others - i .proceeding from the sarne . quat:ter, is roade' in total ignorance. 'Whether the, British ' Government ad, vised Austria to' renew the war, or -dissuaded her from it, or whether tfte British Government gave sny advice at all upon the subject, these Gentlemen do pot, and cannot know ; but it was necessary ,to . ' attack Ministers, and that accusation they thonglit w onia. do, as well as another. A very little reflec t . .• , Lion, h o wever, must conyi•nce any rational and unprejudiced loan that if Austria does continue the .war, it is owing to the inordinate ambition of 13uo .

November preceding. But if the information from .

After_ the return, of this,courier, it is hoped that peace will be signe& certain that the negociationsat Al• tenburglcarepaking progress, and that within these eight days. tha views of both parties have somewhat approximated. • VIENNA, SEPT. 13.—General BUENA arrived here on the loth from the Emperor FRANCIS, at Totis, and immediately proceeded to the head-quarters of the Emperor NAPOLEON, at Schoenbrunn. Yester day he dined with his Majesty, with, whom he had,a long conference before they sat down to table. It is said that : the General intended to return, yester day, but that in consequence of the invitation of the Emperor NAPOLEON he will remain some days longer. It is reported from Altenburgh, that the Austrian Plenipotentiary, Count —METTERNICH, was on the point of departing, when. the French Plenipcten- . Wiry, Count CHAMPAGNY, invited him to stay some time longer, as he would soon have new proPosi- - Lions to submit to him, which would be very agree to the Emperor of Austria. The French army is advancing. force is direaed towards Hungary. A large army is assembling on the Carpathian Mountains, to oppose an irruption into Poland (Corresponden ten.") , 1E! PETERSEURGH, SEPT. I3.—Our Court Gazette of this day contains the following article : It ought to be made known as a warning against credulity, that a vigilant observation has some time ago discovered and brought tolight, the base artifices whereby certain idle persons have endeavoured to promote their own views by occupying the attention of the public with unfounded rumours. These in ventors of truths and falsehoods find every event a pretext for the most alarming forebodings. If war breaks out in a distant part of the Russian ter ritory, they immediately foresee the separation of our provinces, insurrection and uproar; and to lis ten to them, one would think she theatre of the war, was already at Perersburgh. A vidory is no sooner' obtained by our troops, than according to the reli tions Of these worthy patriots, here has fallen Kam menski—there Bagration, in the action. If a hostile fleet appear in she Baltic, they quickly have Cron stadt in flames and Revel in ashese But foreign eventsare not sufficient to employ them ; restless in their art of political lying, ther.seize upon all cir cumstances, and domestic affairS in their turn ,neVv_ engage their attention. Here an extensive field of, no, eiiy opens to them. To-day is to appear an order forbidding all persons to wear a frockto morrow a still more severe regulation—and on the . Ist of September this year was infallibly to have been is,ued an Ukase to repeal the laws in fevour of the peasants as possessors of property. The Minis ster, or that great man, is described to have spoten b idly against such a measure,, and therefore -to have tallea into disgrace. Another is said to have cootribued to the measure, and to be therefore in favour. When the true source of these disgusting stories is disclosed, the well disposed pareof the public tnust be ashamed of becoming an instrument in the hand of baseness, and of having been the sport of passilia which were foreign to them. For the rest, the contrivers of these fables, as well as tie motives which have instigated them, are well known to the Government.. Events have al ready repeatedly exposed to shame their interested partialities. Time will bring tore of them to light, and their names will then, without mercy be exhibited as fit objects of public derision. . , Its principal WESEL, SEPT. 18. ludgment pronounced by the Special Military Ccimrnissiosi, at Wesel, in the zsth Military Division. -- - In the name of the E2,l2Eg9a and ICANG..

AttAr. the Court was opened the, President desired i,tbe rejitter to read the record of the instrnaions and 4targe, and also the docUments to the number of thirteen; which were' given in both for and against prisoners. The reading being finished, the President ordered the guard Lp bring in 'the. prisoners, who appeared before • the ~, Commission, free and without fetters and accompanied by their Counsel. In answer to rideStions respeCting their names, military rank; &c. they answered to their descrip tio.ns and ages as above, and it appeared they were - ell Lieutenants in ScHILL's regiment. The fads in evidence against the accused were after Wards communicated to them, and recapitulated • by the President. 'The reporter having next de livered his relation of the proceedings and drawn • his conclusions therefrom, the accused were heard in their defence, both by theMselves and their Coun sel, all of whom declared that they had nothing urth'er "to add.

The votes being collet:led by the President, it was found that the Court unanimously pronounced the-prisoners Guilty ; whereupon the lieporter, clis; charging the funeions of Imperial Procurator, moved the application of the puninhment of the laW.
